Though unsupported, kernel 4.17.1 worked for me for wi fi. 4.15.x didn't work for me.
will give the kernel you have booted to.
If I have helped you solve a problem, please add [SOLVED] t o your first post title , it helps other users looking for help.

I wouldn't as I bet you would be in worse shape with wifi. In terminal do
Code: Select all
sudo apt update && sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source
Reboot

While this installs, my system is also stuck in software rendering mode.
EDIT:
SecureBoot enabled

Reboot and disable Secure Boot in Bios/UEFI. You might want to start a thread about the software rendering mode

Is this a working Wi-fi connection? Yes it is.

My laptop has the Broadcom wireless that your laptop has. To fix the no wi-fi issue, I did the following: 1) connected laptop to ethernet, 2) ran Driver Manager, 3) applied the bcm driver offered, 4) disconnected from ethernet, 5) re-started networking and voila wi-fi worked.
I hope this can sort your wi-fi issue.
